Steven Tyler gains legal victory as LA court dismisses claims that his memoir caused 'emotional distress' to sexual assault accuser


Steven Tyler faced a lawsuit for alleged sexual assault, sexual battery and more, brought by Julia Misley in December 2022.

This week the court ruled that it would nix the parts of Misley's complaint that stated she endured an intentional infliction of emotional distress (IIED) based on the publications of Tyler's two memoirs. In April 2023, Tyler told the court that he was Misley's legal guardian at the time, giving him immunity from related laws, past and present. In the November filing, plaintiff Jeanne Bellino claimed that Tyler forcibly kissed, groped and dry-humped her back in 1975 when she was 17 and he was 27.
